Opis

Nanofluid Applications for Advanced Thermal Solutions covers heat transfer applications of nanofluids in a variety of fields and the main techniques used in nanofluid flow and heat transfer analysis. The book features an introduction to heat transfer, nanofluid conduction, convection and nanofluid boiling and provides a thorough understanding of a variety of applications, including the energy storage component of solar PVT systems. It covers fundamental topics such as the analysis and measurement of thermophysical properties, convection, and heat transfer equipment performance, and provides a rigorous framework to assist readers in developing new nanofluid-based devices. Finally, the book explores convective instabilities, nanofluids in porous media, and entropy generation in nanofluids. This will be a valuable resource for upper undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral students and researchers in the fields of nanotechnology and nanofluids looking at heat transfer processes in chemical engineering and the petroleum industry.
